Physical education contributes to the total education of the child in the following manner: Physically through the development of the basic motor skills and physical fitness through activities designed around growth and development of individuals. Socially - through activities designed to encourage cooperation and sportsmanship. Emotionally - through the development of character-building qualities such as honesty and personal respect. Intellectually - through the acquisition of knowledge about the activities and games, and an aesthetic appreciation and under- standing of the activities from a participant's or a spectator's point of view. With push-button living becoming more prevalent, there is too little opportunity for physical activity and beneficial exercise. Influences such as television and other mass entertainment are developing "watchers, rather than doers." There is need for more physical activity that will develop physical fitness. 1 4 I'D 01 n.t e -vcr It is the purpose of a comprehensive program of physical fitness and physical education to develop the following physical characteristics in children: Speed Balance Endurance Coordination Flexibility Agility Muscle Strength The foundation for developing the above characteristics in children can be found in the implementation of a comprehensive Physical Fitness Program. Specifically, this program provides a concentrated series of activities designed specifically to develop the body-building and skill-development activities described. To further develop and apply the identified characteristics into a comprehensive program that will develop the social, emotional, and intellectual, as well as the physical program objectives, a comprehensive physical education program serves as an expansion of the basic district physical fitness program. A comprehensive physical education program begins with the development of simple organizational activities designed to prepare individual children for specific skill building activities. As skills and the characteristics previously iden- tified are developed to a progressively higher degree through the implementation of simple physical education activities, the program progresses into a more complex state. Specifically, complex organizational activities combine acquired individual skills into more sophisticated physical education activities. SIMPLE ORGANIZATIONAL ACTIVITIES: A comprehensive Physical Education Program begins with the development of simple organizational activities designed to prepare individual children for specific skill-building activities. Dance Activities Fundamentals Creative Rhythms Etc. Individual and Group Activities Jump rope Tether ball Handball Etc.

Specifically, complex organizational activities combine acquired individual skills into more sophisticated physical education activities: Dance activities and fundamentals are combined to create folk dancing. Relay races, running tag games, simple ball activities and simple team games combine to form the basis for the development of team sports: Volleyball Soccer Football Baseball Basketball Track & Field Classroom activities are expanded to provide rule instruction for complex team games as well as techniques and strategies for play. In addition, safety procedures are stressed for safe play in complex team sports activities.

Such a program of physical education makes provision for each student to build upon his abilities whether they are great or are limited by handicapping conditions. Each student is helped in this endeavor by giving him the instruction and practice he needs, by evaluating his progress and giving him additional instruction and practice if needed, and by constantly adapting instruction so that he may be motivated at all times

  • BONNER Walking Tour Prepared for Bonner School by the Bonner Milltown History Center and Museum May, 2020
    BONNER Walking Tour Prepared for Bonner School by the Bonner Milltown History Center and Museum May, 2020 Begin this self-guided history tour on the corner of Hwy 200 and Hwy 210 Hi, Bonner Lumberjacks! Let’s go on a Bonner time travel walk. Before we start, let’s take a minute and look around. How long can you hold your breath? A long time ago (10,000 years) we would be standing on the bottom of Glacial Lake Missoula. It was 1,000 feet deep! How deep is that? The tops of Bonner and Woody mountains were islands. Did you know that our valley has a mountain that is a weather forecaster? Turn and look across the Clark Fork Valley. Crystal Peak had to be free of snow before Bonner girls in the 1940s were allowed to stop wearing the long, brown thick stockings that kept their legs warm under their skirts on their walk to school in winter. And gardeners waited for the snow to disappear from Crystal Peak to plant their gardens or a late freeze might kill all of their plants. What is Crystal Peak telling you today? Is it time to plant your garden? Now, let’s get started on our tour! Do you recognize this picture? It’s hanging in the school library. Walter Hook graduated from Bonner School. Later when he was a famous artist, he painted this mural showing how the timber industry is a part of Bonner School from the trees being cut in the forest, to boards being made at the mill, to the building of the school.

    Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND July 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 Lingvocultural Interpretation of the Lexical Units, Referring to the Toys and Games in Great Britain & the USA Aigul Rafailevna Valeeva [email protected] Nadezda Vladimirovna Pospelova [email protected] Kazan (Volga Region) Federal University, (Elabuga Institute), 89, Kazanskaya Street, Elabuga, Tatarstan Republic, 423600 Abstract Today the problems of human-language interaction have become paramount in Linguistics, which has the tendency to consider a human being as the centre of the Universe and the main aim of all the occurring events in the world. This article discusses lexical units on the theme "games and toys", relating to the culture of the UK and the US. The role of culture through the study of the above units is significant and immense in the process of language learning. At the same time language serves as the main tool with the help of which we study the culture, it is its constituent part. In this respect, culture and language are interdependent and there is. There is an attempt of classification of lexical units for the studied subject. For about 200 lexical units on the theme "games and toys" were found in the English language within the framework of this research. We attempted to analyze the culture of the US and of the UK on the basis of these lexical units for the successful formation of knowledge of the language. Keywords: language; culture; linguistic culture; lexical unit; realia; quasi-realia; game; toy; classification; semantic feature; analysis. http://www.ijhcs.com/index.php/ijhcs/index Page 534 Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND July 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 Introduction The article is devoted to the study of the lexical units related to the games and toys of Great Britain and the United States.

    Marian Petersen 9/21/04, T1, S1 BL: Hello. MP: Hello. BL: I would like for you to tell me your full name, please. MP: I am Marian Nancy __ Petersen. BL: And what‟s your date of birth? MP: December 11th, 1918. BL: And that makes you how old? MP: Eighty-five. Approaching eight-six. BL: Can you tell me about your parents coming to Union County? MP: Yeah. I could give you a slight description, I guess. My father was from F__, Scotland. He was coming out to the States bringing another lady, woman, to marry a friend of his that was residing in Dayville area. That was his ticket in coming. He ended up in Dayville and was working for Jim Kamp and there were Scotch people around in John Day __ used to be many, anyway. I don‟t know if there is now. My mother lived in John Day. My grandmother on my mother‟s side had remarried and had moved down below John Day about half way between John Day and Mount Vernon. There was a Scotch family that lived just a short distance from there that my father became acquainted with and had helped them out quite a bit with hunting and etcetra. My mother was working there as a cook after she was out of high school…not high school, pardon me, out of grade school because they only went to the eighth grade then. In the eighth grade she didn‟t have the opportunity to go off to high school so she was working and that was where he met her.
